It looks better than I do, but how does it measure up?

The journals look, from the photos, to be in reasonable condition. The real thing is the dimensions and 'roundness'. If both diameters and roundness come out within limits, all it will need is a micro-polish and it'll be good to re-fit with new big-end, main and thrust bearings.

Although my journals all looked good, i could run my nail across them and it would catch so beyond a polish.

 

The machine shop as mentioned will determine if they are good and true.
